President Nana Akufo-Addo launched the Nation Builders’ scheme last Tuesday as an alternative job creation opportunity for the country’s jobless graduates. On the taxes, Wereko-Brobbey was unable to state whether it would be deducted from the GH¢700 stipend or from elsewhere. When he was pushed further by Bernard Ave, the Deputy Minister said:“They [beneficiaries] will pay their social security. It is money they are earning and the concept of taxation is that anything you earn, you have to pay taxes on it. What I can speak to is that any money you earn you will pay taxes on it.
